The New Home of Darryl and Stanley in My Living Room

I usually keep half open the vertical blinds behind the cage so the birds have a sunny and a shady side on which to perch. That window behind the blinds faces west. There are now two plants in the cage: thyme and baby tears, both of whose leaves the birds eat.

The mesh surrounding the top part is .5" galvanized squares, but the mesh was covered with baked-on white epoxy paint to protect the birds from the possible harmful effects of their eating the galvanized surface. There are two doors on each end of the top part. I can open either or both to make photos of the birds. There are four wheels at the bottom to make moving the cage easy for cleaning.
